Plantar Fasciitis and other things.

With only 12 days left before I leave for my Camino I had to address some issues this week.
I finally started walking again last Friday after a 2 week break due to simply being too busy with work and too much to do at home. Sadly after the first walk my Plantar Fasciitis acted up  badly . It had been minor the last couple of months but last week it was bad. So I finally caved and got a Cortisone injection Monday. The Podiatrist also gave me a night splint and some other tips to keep all under control. Now just fingers crossed it will do it's job. 

But I also had some fun things this week. I finally met (and had lunch with ) Patty, who is one part of the Bonita Springs Camino duo "Chicks with Sticks" ha ha. Patty and her friend are leaving for their 3rd Camino in July. 
She knows of several other locals that walk(ed) the Camino. We will try to get together with all after this summer's Caminos.

All pre work is now done. I have all my gear in order, have my Euro's, European sim card, booked all Hostels/Albergues and transportation. So I'm good to go. :)

On June 9th I will start my LONG trip from Bonita Springs to Saint Jean Pied de Port. 
2.5 hr drive to Miami airport, 10 hr flight to Madrid, 3.5 hr train to Pamplona and then the next day a 2 hr bus to Saint Jean Pied de Port. And then the day after........my 1st steps to cross the Pyrenees on the challenging Route Napoleon where, if the weather is good, I will be rewarded with this view :)
